Question

What should be changed to make the following sentence true? “Acrophobia is characterized by intense fear, anxiety, and avoidance of situations in which it might be difficult to escape or receive help if one experiences symptoms of a panic attack.”

Answer 1

Acrophobia should be changed to Agoraphobia.

Step-by-step explanation:

Acrophobia is the fear of heights, even if one is not at a particularly high place. But, agoraphobia is an anxiety disorder where one has a fear of certain places and situations that might cause one to panic and make it difficult for the person to find an escape. It makes the person develop a fear of those places and leads to having panic or anxiety attacks. So, for the given sentence to be deemed true, acrophobia has to be changed to agoraphobia.
